Ohio State coach Jake Diebler reacts to the loss at Michigan State
· Yahoo Sports
Like a few games this season for the Ohio State basketball team, it did enough throughout most of the game to come away with a win, but couldn't finish the deal, losing 66-60 on Sunday. The difference this time is that it was in a very difficult place to play while being shorthanded against Michigan State.

Still, it was a game the Buckeyes sorely needed to get off that NCAA Tournament bubble, and none of the decision makers at the NCAA are going to remember that OSU played toe-to-toe with a very good Spartans team with two of its best players out of the game. In the end, it was another close loss that's not quite enough yet again.
OSU head coach Jake Diebler met with the media following the game to answer questions and provide his thoughts on the game, and we have his entire comments thanks to the WILX News YouTube channel. Diebler was proud of his team's fight and thought the defense continued to show progress, but still lamented the inability to get the job done.

Ohio State is now up against it and will most likely need to spring an upset somewhere in the next four games to get into the Big Dance, and it gets a chance to do just that when it hits the road to face Iowa on Wednesday.
